The bustling city of Phnom Penh is explored initially by vehicle due to the heavy traffic, before heading out into the stunning Cambodian countryside, a truly unforgettable bike ride. Following the Mekong River we visit Kampong Cham and Kampong Thom before heading to the spectacular Angkor complex near the town of Siem Reap. The highlight is very likely to be the 12th Century jewel in the crown of the region, Angkor Wat. This cycling itinerary is presented to give an idea as to what kinds of tours are possible. We can design custom tours from luxury, first-class tours to low-cost budget tours. Just let us know what kind of tour we can design for you!
Day 01: Phnom Penh Arrival
There are two seasons in Cambodia, wet and dry. From early May to the end of October is the rainy season. It often rains heavily but for short periods of time, mostly later in the day or during the night, after which the sun returns. The rain cools the air and freshens up the lush green of the rice plantations. It is cooler in the dry season, which runs from early November to early February, when it starts heating up again, building to the hottest month of April. So the best time for rain lovers is between May and October and from November to early March for those who like it dry and cool.
The Travel Loops team is a local team and has been arranging tours for over 10 years throughout the Indochina region. They know the countries, the people and the cultures of the area, and some members of the team are experts in cycling in Indochina. You will be in expert hands with Travel Loops.
As you might know, due to various circumstances there are many orphaned children and children in poverty in Cambodia. Consequently, there are many orphanages and drop-in centres for kids around the country. Unfortunately not all are bona fide organisations as many are not above board. To be sure you will support a registered, vetted organisation contact ConCERT Cambodia in Siem Reap. ‘Dropping in’ is no longer recommended – orphanages are not tourist attractions. An organisation that allows unannounced drop-ins’ may not be so ethical or enforcing their Child Protection Policies, if they even have one. ConCERT Cambodia can advise and arrange visits, or volunteer time at more than 30 NGOs (Non Government Organisations). Day 01: Phnom Penh Arrival
